VEHICLE CRASHES INTO CROOKSTON HIGH SCHOOL COMMONS WINDOW DURING GIRLS’ BASKETBALL GAME

During the Crookston High School Girls’ Basketball game against East Grand Forks last night, a vehicle crashed into the door and windows at the back of the High School Commons room, damaging the door, a window frame pillars and breaking several panes of glass at the rear entrance door. Thankfully nobody was injured.

The crash happened due to a member of the school’s staff backing up their car to unload some items from their vehicle for a fundraising event during the game when they accidentally hit the school building. The school has made temporary patch repairs to the damaged area and is looking to begin repairs soon. “I wasn’t there, I’ve seen pictures, but I believe we’ll have to put in a new door and have some glass repaired. That is in the works right now in getting that repaired,” Crookston Public Schools Interim Superintendent Dave Kuehn explained. “We’ll work with our insurance company, look into what insurance will cover, and work through our insurance company on the damages there.” The school noted repairs will be completed as soon as possible and hopes to see some of them beginning by next week.

Kuehn said it was an unfortunate incident, and accidents happen. “Those things take place. You have to work through the insurance company. It’s an insurance case, no different from any kind of car accident or damage to anybody’s personal item,” said Kuehn. “It’s unfortunate that it happened, but again it was an accident, and we’ll work through our insurance company to get it taken care of as soon as possible.”
